In a new series, the Strategist is investigating the best hotels in a variety of destinations. First stop: Brooklyn
Photo: Courtesy TripAdvisor Here at the Strategist, we like to think of ourselves as crazy about the stuff we buy, but we get even more obsessive when it comes to the places we visit.

From $246 at TripAdvisor Buy Best-rated chain hotel in Brooklyn Hampton Inn Brooklyn/Downtown 4.5 stars,1,361 reviews 125 Flatbush Ave. Ext., Brooklyn, NY 11201 From $159 at TripAdvisor Buy And now for some micro-picks for every type of hotel in Brooklyn you might be looking for. “I truly felt like I entered a sanctuary when I crossed the door to my room, and then you leave your room and you’re in another peaceful world in the lobby, lounge, restaurants, rooftop pool,” writes one traveler from Washington, D.C., of the 1 Hotel Brooklyn Bridge, which is located right above the Brooklyn Bridge Park with a clear view of the Manhattan skyline.

Most of the Hotel Le Jolie reviewers are travelers who’ve come to the city for business and use the hotel as an office in-between meetings. One traveler says for business trips, it’s “a refreshing change from the chain hotels,” though it offers similar basic amenities one would expect from a chain. Some rooms feature jazzy wallpaper and pops of blues and greens throughout, while others are a bit more standard with basic brown and beige furniture that’s typical for a business or airport hotel.
